interestingly that's almost exactly what the turtle wax kit was minus the clear coat ( I did end up using some I had on hand) it had these two really fine sandpaper squares each with two sides so four different grits it had a "clarifying compound" which was basically a cutting compound that you are supposed to use a cotton terry cloth to buff the lights in the end, a "spray lubricant" which seemed like water with a little soap mixed in and it also had two wipes, one said base coat and the other said sealing top coat which I used over the clear coat.

Scored big at the scrapyard today, found 4 new rotors. They are basically brand new just some surface rust from siting in the rain there’s no pitting at all on them and they’re drilled/slotted. Only cost $10 each

I too don’t have a lot of knowledge when it comes to this, this is only the second car I have put drilled/slotted rotors on, but the ones that were on the car were also d/s and they were warped it wasn’t extremely bad but it was annoying hence why I bought these when I found them. But mine were also very worn I can’t properly measure them but there was a decent lip on the edge of all of them. If you ask me it just comes down to the quality of the rotors you buy and your driving style.

No work on the Mazda today but had to put a fuse box in the truck, started it on Monday and the parking lights, taillights cab lights and a bunch of other stuff wasn’t working and then I found this, it was a first for me never had to replace a whole fuse box before.

Now, what are you still doing here? GO VOTE FOR MY BABY TO WIN 6OTM!!!!

It doesn’t necessarily shift early, I wasn’t giving it WOT at the time if you look closely you can see how rough the road is in that intersection and with the amount of extra torque I gained with that intake it was breaking the wheels loose. I could probably get the bezel I have considered it I’m just not sure which one I like better lol.

And yeah its awesome to live this close to summit racing, I literally live about 35 minutes (depending on traffic) from the original summit in Tallmadge Ohio I live just outside of Massillon Ohio

No problem, yes; multiple coats of semi-gloss black followed by multiple coats of semi-gloss clear. Here's a better picture of the completed paint job before I installed the radio & shifter bezels back into the car

Finally found a way to fix the issue of my high beam indicator coming on with my fog lights, ended up completely tearing apart the fuse box and doing some wiring of my own. And painted the center console/radio bezel,
3 coats krylon bonding primer

4 coats of krylon fusion satin black

Lost count of how many coats of krylon satin clear but the finished product looks good

I figured since it's getting colder and I can have the wagon in the garage, I'd start in with the stuff I have planned. First up was painting the plastic grille pieces. I started with the main one since it's the most challenging, and to make sure I have enough paint at least for that one. I had...

Howdy,
Compared to a lot of folks on here, my mods will likely be tame. In the 17 years that I owned my last vehicle, the only mods I made were a Bra and CD player. However, in those 17 years, I never had the inspiration that I have received from you folks.
I do have a wishlist;
iJDMTOY...

As of May 18th, I'm now the proud owner of a 2018 GT Reserve. Deep Crystal Blue with Black interior. :)
It turns out that it's currently the only 6 in upstate NY with the model/color combo, it had to be transplanted to me from Buffalo. 3 days and over 200 miles later, the smile has gone...

Shiro Shinobi - "White Ninja"
A new chapter has begun. For the first time in my life, and probably last time for long while, I have become the owner of a brand new car.
You all know me and my 2004 Performance White GT. She treated me well, but alas, she was on her last legs and I could no...

As many of you know, I have a thing for the wagons! I know there's a number of you out there but I don't see many photos of them on here so I thought I'd start a wagon photo thread. All gen's are welcome. Post updates and random shots as you update your ride.
SHOW ME YOUR WAGON!
